Africa-Press – Kenya. <\/strong><\/span>United Democratic Movement Secretary General Ceophas Malala has slammed the Orange Democratic Movement for cracking the whip on rebel members.<\/p>\n

Malala went bare-knuckle on the opposition outfit branding it the “Orange Dictatorship Movement (ODM) where Democracy, freedom of thought and association is a capital offence”.<\/p>\n

It followed a move by the Raila Odinga-led party to expel five rebel MPs whom it accused of associating with the Kenya Kwanza government.<\/p>\n

Those expelled are Phelix Odiwuor alias Jalang’o (Lang’ata), Elisha Odhiambo (Gem), Caroli Omondi (Suba South), Gideon Ochanda (Bondo) and Kisumu Senator Tom Ojienda.<\/p>\n

The party also fined Nairobi Woman Representative Esther Passaris Sh250,000 for defying the party position and voting for the Finance Bill, 2023 (now an Act).<\/p>\n

The National Executive Committee (NEC) also fined Uriri MP Mark Nyamita and his Rongo counterpart Paul Abuor Sh1 million each to be paid within 60 days by openly associating with and supporting activities of a rival political party.<\/p>\n

The NEC meeting which was chaired by National Chairman John Mbadi said the members violated Article 11 of the party constitution and section 14A of the Political Parties Act 2011 by further opposing lawful decisions and resolutions made by the party organs.<\/p>\n

The NEC also adopted recommendations of the Disciplinary Committee and revoked the nomination of four members of the County Assembly of Kisumu for gross misconduct.<\/p>\n

These are Caroline Opar, Kennedy Ajwang\u2019, Peter Obaso and Regina Kizito.<\/p>\n
